Cat Matlala, co-accused back in court to apply for bail


Businessman Vusi ‘Cat’ Matlala is expected back in the Alexandra Magistrate’s Court in Johannesburg on Tuesday for a bail application.

Matlala, his wife and three others are facing charges of attempted murder and conspiracy to commit murder.

Matlala allegedly ordered a hit on his former girlfriend, Tebogo Thobejane.

Previously, Matlala abandoned his bail application; however, he has since told the court that he wants to reapply.

Last month, the National Prosecuting Authority said it would bring an additional seven dockets against the accused.
